Per gram, it provides 90 mg of nitrate. The powder is tasteless and dissolves completely, making it easy for athletes to incorporate into their pre-workout or a simple glass of water. One jar contains 75 grams, enough for 75 doses. It is a sports nutrition product, intended to supplement your nitrate intake around your workouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat OxyStorm® is and how it compares to beetroot powder\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOxyStorm® is the brand name of a nitrate-rich amaranth extract, developed by Arjuna Natural in India. Amaranthus dubius is naturally one of the richest plant sources of nitrate available. Thanks to water-based extraction, the nitrate is concentrated to 9% of the extract's weight. For comparison: red beetroot powder typically contains 1 to 2% nitrate, and many beetroot juices are even lower. Per gram, OxyStorm® therefore provides significantly more nitrate than the same amount of a beetroot-based product. Another difference lies in its composition: the extract has a neutral pH and does not contain oxalates, substances naturally present in beetroot. For athletes who want to precisely dose their nitrate intake without drinking liters of beetroot juice, this is a practical advantage. Amaranth is also consumed as a pseudo-grain, but for OxyStorm® it is solely the leaf, which contains the most nitrate. Since the amount of nitrate per gram is fixed, you know exactly what you are consuming with each scoop, which varies much more with fresh leaves or juice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom nitrate to nitric oxide in your body\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDietary nitrate follows a well-known pathway in your body. In the mouth and digestive tract, bacteria and enzymes convert nitrate (NO3) into nitrite (NO2). Nitrite is then converted into nitric oxide (NO), a small signaling molecule involved in relaxing the walls of blood vessels. This conversion pathway is widely described in scientific literature and explains why nitrate receives so much attention in the sports world. This is exactly the same form of nitrate that is naturally present in leafy vegetables like spinach and arugula. OxyStorm® provides these plant nitrates in a concentrated, tasteless powder form, so you determine the amount you consume yourself. In the sports world, this pathway is called the nitrate-nitrite-nitric oxide pathway. This is the same reason why a serving of red beetroot or a handful of spinach is sometimes mentioned around exercise, except that leafy vegetables contain a much lower and more variable amount of nitrate than a standardized extract. Nitrate is therefore not an exotic substance, but a natural component of your diet, simply present in a much more concentrated form in this amaranth extract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasteless powder for your pre-workout\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEase of use comes from its neutral taste. OxyStorm® has no beetroot taste, no color, and no sugar, making it possible to mix it into almost any workout drink without it being noticeable. Dissolve 1 gram in 200 to 300 ml of water or add it to your pre-workout, mix for a moment, and it's ready. No heat or shaker needed. Many athletes take their nitrate 30 to 60 minutes before exercise, as the conversion of nitrate to nitrite and then to nitric oxide takes time. This way, you calmly integrate it as a fixed part of your warm-up routine before a training session or competition. Endurance athletes, team sports athletes, and strength athletes each use nitrate in their own way, from a fixed daily dose to taking it just before a difficult session. Since the powder has no distinct taste, it does not interfere with your usual pre-workout mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e75 grams per jar: dose with the scoop\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe jar comes with a scoop that allows you to precisely measure 1 gram, the recommended daily amount. With 75 grams per jar, you have enough for 75 doses, which is about two and a half months of daily use. The powder is entirely plant-based, extracted from amaranth leaves, and therefore suitable for vegetarians and vegans. It is gluten-free and lactose-free. In short: a compact, tasteless source of nitrate that you can easily integrate into your existing routine, whether you are running, cycling, or weightlifting. Store the jar in a dry, well-sealed place; the powder will remain usable for a long time. And since one dose is only 1 gram, a 75-gram jar lasts a long time without taking up much space in your cupboard. The scoop helps to maintain the same amount each day, which is practical if you want to track your nitrate intake.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"German Elite Nutrition","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49386118578404,"sku":"gen-104","price":24.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/9724\/7460\/files\/NitraatPoeder_Oxystorm_75g-PuurAmaranthusBladExtractPoeder-OptimaalvoorPreWorkoutBooster.jpg?v=1783855295","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.fr\/en\/products\/gen-oxystorm-nitrate-poudre-75g","provider":"LUTO Supplements France","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
